[Clint nods back in kind. They understand each other. He releases Steve's shoulder.

Barton abruptly stoops, as if doubling over, but straightens a moment later: it was only to retrieve the knife he'd dropped.]

A bandage would be great. Shall we get somewhere where that's likely? If we can get to higher ground we might be able to hop buildings…

[The side's still bleeding and Barton might need your support in not too long, but he'll run on his own as long as he can.]

Good idea. The houses might have supplies. Worst case scenario we can fashion something out of extra material.

[Steve turns his gaze upwards to the rooftops, judging the gap above them and he leans back far enough to check the distances on the ones nearest to them. It's an easy jump for him, even with his abilities reduced, but he's not bleeding everywhere.]

Will you be able to manage?

[Barton sheaths his knife, presses a button on his quiver, reaches for his bow and an arrow with the same hand, and tosses one into the hand of his injured side. He suppresses most of the wince as he draws the arrow with the grappling cable attached.]

Let's find out.

[ooc: Pausing on a cliffhanger!! :-) :-) Sadly I'm off on an internetless week, and don't expect you'll want to continue this when I get back, but we certainly can if you're still interested, and either way thank you for helping me voicetest and this was unutterably awesome!!!]

[He glances around again, checking their surroundings and instinctively covering Clint as he moves.]

Don't strain yourself. Minor injuries can turn into major ones.

[ooc: No problem! It's a lot of fun. I don't mind continuing if you want to! I will backtag forever :3]
